In N Out is Southern California at it's lowest price best. The burger is one to try or go back to if you haven't had in a while.

Best Mexican food around and especially in Orange County. Laguna is the luxury beach area. Lots of art galleries and stuff to see and do. But Las Brisas and their patio rivals no one. Margaritas awesome. Chips and guac super fresh.

Probably the best mall in Southern California. Sure, there are outdoor venues like Americana and The Grove, but this mall is the old standard but kept up to 21st century standards. Luxury and basics all in one giant mall. Check out some of our dinner suggestions in Laguna and Newport to make this a nice day trip.
